Narrative:
We are unable to use crew rest facilities except for only one flight attendant while pilots are able to use both bunks in their crew rest and we are required to be separated. The 3 crew rest seats provided in seating area are not appropriate since it does not have a curtain to block the light and due to passenger placement; we are unable to remove masks for the time on crew rest which promotes fatigue and other negative effects of long term mask wearing. Unable to get adequate rest due to the covid-19 restrictions the company has imposed while pilots operate as normal and with no mask restrictions.
